egypt's leadership apparently yields to the pressure from the tens of thousands of demonstrators converged on the doorsteps of the presidential palace in cairo the army stepping aside to allow the protest. bridge inserts altered to water down the emus always embargo against syria saying it wants to pump more military hardware into the war torn nation. and you arab spring revolution could be ripening in the gulf war numerous opposition groups united wait for a ballooning dynasty's iron fist response an added more intense the street protests . and the british royal couple's joy of expecting their first baby is maad by a shocking nurse suicide quoting a radio prank call with an angled public jumping down the media's throat.

it's three pm here in moscow you're watching r t live with me tom let's say and it's all standoff between egypt's leader mohamed morsi and a thousand strong army of his opponents it looks like the president could throw in the towel first will seize a claim there's a high chance a key opposition demand for delay to an approaching referendum on a controversial islamic led constitution will now be met one this from car based reporter. the referendum for the experts abroad has been postponed until wednesday in addition the justice minister ahmed mackey said the president may see the referendum for spodes here in egypt provided the opposition forces open dialogue with the president without preconditions because people see on the streets as leading without the rest of the demands here the presidential palace doesn't say

spontaneous it's you know the knights in protest of this controversial decrees that president morsi released two weeks ago which they see as a power grab and of course the constitution which is going to refer in the next week to stacey's dismissed as it was written by an islamist dominated constitutional assembly overnight scenes here were tense as the muslim brotherhoods gathered in nearby mosques to the presidential palace and there were rumors that they would march on the city and however that never happens the scenes were very calm after we witnessed extraordinary scene yesterday when hundreds of thousands of protesters just outside the presidential palace in front of republican guard barricades storms the republican guards who essentially stepped aside and let the. protesters through to the gates of the presidential palace so they could continue their protest right in front of the gates shouting leave morsi leave and against the constitution very emotional scenes here on the streets meanwhile the opposition

forces in the national salvation front have said they will not budge they have a list of key demands which includes the referendum being stopped and also because in this contentious decree being revoked they said they will not speak to the president and until he listens to the demands of the moment the president is sticking by his guns to really we're still seeing a deadlock here in egypt. media reports inside egypt suggests the army could be authorized to quote violent demonstrations and they kept it all but some analysts fear that if the military steps in the country will be plunged into deeper political chaos. at this point you should have known the gathering the trust and good will of the egyptian people is more important than any specific action he wants to accomplish so things are really very dangerous in egypt now and i hope the violence will fall all. of confrontations in front of the presidential

palace my fears are that the military missed the. clear clear the decks for themselves i don't think it's dangerous in terms of morsi using the roundest power to crush and kill thousands and thousands of egyptians i don't think he will go that route so my feeling is only from the military military have a history of doing those things in egypt or elsewhere. the u.s. is steadily approaching the fiscal cliff. do you know the fiscal cliff now do you think a lot of americans do you know you think most people are worried i think they are and i think that if i ignore it will go away but nothing's really going to change because the economy is like that you might think it will change but they're going to think about it the resident answer if americans are prepared to dive that's a hate. plus india declares a full scale war on a deadly rotavirus disease which kills the hundreds of thousands of children in the

world promising a one dollar vaccine against a baby killer. looking to unite its own hands britain now wants to take the edge off the e.u.'s arms embargo against syria under and says it wants to help rebel groups more buy a greater aid and shipments of military gear that was our teaser sir for us reports the final recipients may not be the ones the u.k. has in mind. well the u.k. foreign office has confirmed this week britain is going to be thinking an amendment to the arms embargo on syria making it easier to help the opponents the syrian president bashar al assad now a foreign office official has said that the practical support is likely to include training and non-lethal equipment britain want to play a role in syria after the other side regime falls because. they would like to be involved. so therefore britain wants to back the winning side. never

will provide. the trouble. they can't identify eventually. which side would you do support. what will be the interests of the militia. here when they take power because the danger is there is new. leader of the opposition because at least twenty. therefore if but leaves. from syria then. apart. these two and in fact fight one another but at the end of the day it's going to be the syrians are going to decide. from. now currently items such as body armor and night vision goggles a caught up in that arms embargo and say the amendment would allow items like that to be supplied of course throughout the conflict in syria within an increasingly fragmented opposition and

say there is a lot of concern that the supply of any weaponry could well end up in the wrong hands nonetheless person will be pushing ahead this week seeking an amendment. a number of syrian rebels have created a new unified military command to better coordinate the insurgency in syria but so far it's only cause even more division a spokesman from the free syrian army which was in attendance denounced the new authority as saturated by islamists and by one's control from outside syria meanwhile benevolence is mobilizing to page up missile batteries to send to turkey joining germany and american units there to guard against a possible attack from syria one that lawrence wilkerson a former chief of staff to secretary of state colin powell says will never come. why in the world would we put patriot batteries on the turkish border ostensibly to protect turkey with the largest army and the most powerful army in the region

indeed one of the most powerful in the world turkey image no protection from that sort of thing and it would be earlier orderly stupid for assad to attack turkey in their way so why are we doing these things that look like they are connected to reality and worse reality is we are preparing the ground to intervene in syria i think also that it would be again a bad. or as a war into iran which is the as you well know the real threat that we've been putting out there for years now and i think we're looking at syria and iran be a combination that we would then take on and you're talking about in my view a conflict that becomes regional and maybe even wider. one of the oldest standing gulf monarchies could soon face another arab spring uprising kuwait's rule is that cracking down on protesters and blocking the opposition's political means but all

of this is energizing the resistance even more as artie's lucie county reports. and you don't. but tensions are simmering beneath the calm as those seeking political change are forced to wait. one sleepy community into a powerful nation although it's been ruled by the same family for more than two centuries whose weight is widely seen as the most i'm aquatic of the gulf monarchies get some young kuwaitis beg to differ there is a few countries. but. it's just. the government says that it is doing all it can to maintain stability supporters of the ruling family point out that it boasts a robust public life with electoral traditions and a vibrant parliament for youth activists. that's not enough the opposition consists of an unlikely alliance of youth groups hard line islamists and local tribes who are ramping up their calls for reform increasingly they've taken their message to

the street where peaceful demonstrations have been met with an iron fist. beaten up by. special forces. and after the march. on the streets just being. critics of kuwait's government claim it turns a blind eye to allegations of widespread corruption and the use of security forces to crush dissenting voices ask for the rule of law so we don't have a law that is being used whenever the government feels like using the rig's here began years before the arab spring protests but have intensified over a series of political crises the opposition dominated parliament was dismissed earlier this year following a row with the ruling establishment the electoral law was then changed prompting many to boycott kuwait's most recent parliamentary vote resulting divide is unlikely to be bridged anytime soon and it leaves the monarchy with an energized

opposition eager to make itself heard i sat there forever. like i was reading recently for current i need to shut. down or what people are trying to hide by taking to the streets that they are was be the local system they want more freedom more of the right. whatever this one show is that almost isn't enough that it was free to say in the future how that future plays out well write the next chapter of the arab spring to seek out the no forty eight. on our t.j. all com there's mall on the address brewing against the decades and centuries old want to he's in the gulf states you can head the whole background in full and malices and timelines and we've got more news after a break. tucked

sunken region to enjoy the sights others convert the island's nature's riches into a healthy dollar it is home to the biggest seafood processing factory in russia the tonight shock hundreds of thousands of tons of fish get caught in the nets too late to produce delicious salamon caviar almost unnecessary attribute of any feast in russia the owner of the enterprise says a good fishing season can bring in more than a hundred million dollars net profit. and to a large extent this is old to do what succulent offers environmentally the tonight show operates in only and natural habitat and mild climate unique natural sights and delicious seafood succulent can offer a diverse holiday but those who are not afraid to travel ten thousand kilometers from europe the. the question is whether this distant blood would ever be able to become a major tourist destination. more

news today violence is once again flared up. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. operation the day.

you're watching our team the nurse who treated the u.k.'s royal mother to be kate middleton for acute morning sickness has been found day to office and left suicide bombing a prank call from an australian radio station two d.j.'s called a private london hospital impersonating the queen and prince charles to gain information on the duchess's condition i just bought a book of on whether the media should learn what responsibility means. you'd have to be living under a rock not to have heard all about kate's pregnancy that was announced this week and the fact that the duchess of cambridge was in hospital and really you know any mainstream media website you can play on it and see all the details in fact you

know the media speculation surrounding this pregnancy has been has really reached fever pitch we've had discussions over whether or not the duchess could be expecting twins whether there would be in line for the throne if in fact it is twins whether if she has a natural birth or is this so scary and section whether it be the physicians that decides who is the successor to the throne all this is taking place when there are other events taking place in the world you know still a crisis in syria protests in egypt it's all taking place against this backdrop and a lot of people saying that this media coverage of kate's pregnancy has really been rather disproportionate especially with this tragic twist that has now ensued now i'm joined by course q. they along journalist he's been following the story of course now a lot of people saying that they're sick of hearing about kate's morning sickness now the british media is

a lot of people saying overlooking much more pressing issues why is the e.u. so sex with royal and celebrity culture. because it's paper because again diverts you know divert attention away from the issue of corporate control you increase privatization of services you know the benefit cuts the division in this country you think this tragic twist is going to fuel the call of those that say that the morning to should be abolished altogether well i don't think we should necessarily use this tragic death as an opportunity for political point scoring but of course if we had a media which was more reasonable just when it happened if the suicide is actually proved to be related to you to what happened i personally think there should be should have a royal family but that's another question. well there you have it now the juke and duchess of cambridge have said that deeply saddened by the news of the tragic news of this the death of the royal not so what should have been a joy for the pregnancy announcement has been some save because of the

disproportionate media coverage turned into a very tragic news story. let's not forget what else is happening around the world thousands of people have already gathered in gaza to celebrate the twenty fifth anniversary of hamas the biggest event of the first of all is expected to be a speech by the party's leader khaled mashal as he visits the land for the first time after he's already called it his third birth the rivers wild speculation whether the group considered by many as terrorist is gaining acceptance in the modern world. barack obama has asked congress to approve a sixty billion dollars aid package for the states worst hit by superstorm sandy in october the request has to get approval from both of the republicans and democrats the president's team has also proposed to make the package immune to any spending cuts due to its urgent and one time nature. obama's plea for recovery

funds comes as he negotiates with the republicans void the so-called fiscal cliff it's a set of spending cuts and tax hikes that are set to take effect on the first of general and could be ruinous to the economy but does the average american fear the looming doom artie's new york resident try to find out. america is about to go over the fiscal cliff are you worried what should we do about it this week let's talk about that do you know the fiscal cliff. do you think a lot of americans do so then why is the media talking about it incessantly we're also going to i guess i have not as informed as i should be but i just kind of figure it might work out do you think most people feel that way you know you think most people are worried i think they are and i think that if i ignored it all go away do you think calling it something like the fiscal cliff minimizes it yes or no

i definitely agree that it's a complex problem i don't think it simplifies it though i think it adds an element of panic or fear looming. doom and the media loves that yeah i do think there's actually something to worry about or do you think it's something the politicians and the media used to distract us from what's really going on politics and media for sure so what's really going on that they're distracting us from. their own personal agendas if they're not really trying to work together three business channels running twenty four hours a day and it's good news nothing else is happening we're already caught in one so we move on and we just talk about the fiscal cliff correct i always carry every body everybody in their system even though nothing's really going to change because the economy sucks anyway oh i think it'll change i just don't think they're going to i think about whether or not americans are worried about the fiscal cliff the bottom line is the media is milking the crap out of the fray while realistically nothing drastic is probably going to happen.

and is on its way to make you what it sees as being one of the biggest leaps in medicine in one hundred times it's developing a one dollar vaccine for baby killer disease which could help prevent many thousands of deaths are suspicious rita has small. this is india's genome valley inside these quiet sterile labs there's a revolution taking place that could change the world's approach to public health and potentially save the lives of one hundred thousand indian children every year bharath biotech is an indian firm developing a one dollar vaccine against rotavirus a disease which causes diarrhea in infants and is deadly in the developing world but i think also like a new generation and most like us ok money making is also important but then solving the life saving the life of government doesn't change it's also what a critical a new study shows india is leading the way in treating people in remote

areas in battling diseases which are shunned by the big pharmaceutical companies because immunizations in the developed world have all but a blitter rated them do a lot of the focus and good that children are shareholders are good in mind but it was a value you wouldn't search for one billion dollars on the product i mean if i believe all this is india's leap into innovating for the under-served began when the country began complying with the global intellectual property law it forced them to stop making only cheap copies of existing drugs and branch out instead into new research and development creating vaccines isn't the only way to battle neglected diseases diagnostic tests are also key to identifying what the problem is this fabric chip is being developed here in a chair a lab in bangalore the idea is with just one drop of blood on the spot for me you could diagnose at home or in a doctor's office potentially reaching millions of people in this country who don't have access to proper health care dr done jiah done the koori the brains behind the

fabric chip believes that other more profit driven companies will start to take an interest once they realize just how big this market really is a volume just like the strips or the ones there's like millions of millions of this being sold i wonder how she'd be trying is that people who get interested maybe the price point something like a lot of money to do in the west with its own. but it starts making sense taking matters into their own hands to save the lives of their country's people and not waiting for the big profit driven pharmaceutical companies to make the first play preassure either r.t. bangalore india. a cold welcome full mexico's new president or with his inauguration mad not wood chips but deadly nationwide protests that and more next with everyone in. mission free credit patient free. for charges free. maintenance

i know that i'm sitting there seems really messed up. and we're all very so personally apologized and said. the worst you're going to. wipe out soup of a. radio guy in fort lauderdale minutes from a cricket because they want to watch what we're about to give you've never seen anything like that i'm told. was going on guys i'm having martin's break in the set so i've got a lot to talk about today but first let me bring your attention to this story and speaking to n.b.c. news afghanistan president hamid karzai said that the u.s. is in part to blame for afghanistan's instability get out. so it's. sort of number of years. it goes perception the kind of stuff.

that. it's significant part of it's accused of in afghanistan it's caused by the way. the united states and some of its allies. promote. the smiths and it's got to start by spreading corruption in afghanistan by . employing private security firms who became involved are all and. so having private mercenaries running around under the cloak of impunity has people in afghanistan pissed off can't say i'm not shocked that that that's not all because when the reporter probed even further cars i had this to say. very strong perception that the sum of stuff and security is intentional yes wow president karzai himself is saying that afghans believe their insecurity is intentionally brought on by nato and the u.s. and you know what makes sense especially when i think of incidents such as the

marines were found you're needed on the corpses of taliban fighters or the soldier who went off on a murderous killing spree one night seventeen innocent civilians or even just the presence of the american military in a country that does not want to be occupied a country where ninety percent polled doesn't even know what nine eleven is and americans wonder why this country hasn't won the hearts and minds of afghans but you know if karzai is right then all of this begs a very important question why would the u.s. intentionally be creating insecurity and instability in afghanistan unless the war is meant to be sustained not one so let's go break the set. up where you are saying anything like. oh. well guys it's for.
